can you try to disable rbd cache ? (which is enable by default in giant) [client] rbd_cache = false ----- Mail original ----- De: "Florent Bautista" <florent@xxxxxxxxxxx> À: ceph-users@xxxxxxxx Envoyé: Vendredi 14 Novembre 2014 11:54:19 Objet: RBD read performance in Giant ? Hi all, On a testing cluster, I upgraded from Firefly to Giant. Without changing anything, read performance on a RBD volume (in a VM) has been divided by 4 ! With Firefly, in the VM (/dev/vda is a Virtio RBD device) : hdparm -Tt /dev/vda /dev/vda: Timing cached reads: 20568 MB in 1.99 seconds = 10314.48 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 1190 MB in 3.00 seconds = 396.49 MB/sec With Giant : hdparm -Tt /dev/vda /dev/vda: Timing cached reads: 20340 MB in 1.99 seconds = 10199.48 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 318 MB in 3.00 seconds = 105.85 MB/sec Write performance is the same than before, no change. How can we explain this ? Every system is running Debian Wheezy. Thank you a lot. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
